Re: 100 Greatest Slashers of all time.

I went back through the thread, deleted any repeat entries and made sure the numbering is correct. So...

PAY ATTENTION TO THE LIST, PEOPLE! Make sure the film you want to add isn't already on the list. I know it's a pain in the ass to have to scroll through page after page and check and double-check the list, but it's even more of a pain in the ass when I have to go back and edit one post at a time to keep things in order.

So, here's a request; if your post is at the top of a new page, please take a moment to re-post an updated list along with it. Keeps folks from having to go back through multiple pages, and makes it easier for me to make sure everything's koscher.

Re: 100 Greatest Slashers of all time.

Want to point this out. SURELY Suspiria shouldn't be counted as a slasher. A Itilian film, yes but there is a distinction between the Italian Giallo - that, admittedly represented, many of the Italian horror films from the same period as Suspiria - and a Argento supernational horror like Suspiria and Inferno.

35. Bay of Blood (Twitch of The Death Nerve) - One of the first blueprints of the Giallo, but perhaps more importantly the American Slasher films from the master Mario Bava.

I agree, I don't see Suspiria as a slasher. Argento's giallo's are close enough to let slide, but I just don't see Suspiria or Inferno as slashers. There isn't one specific killer. To me it's a supernatural horror film.
